蕭士塔柯維契 ／布洛赫／蕭士塔柯維契：根據希伯萊主題的音樂Music on Hebrew Themes - I Musici de Motreal

本片收錄三位大作曲家為猶太民族所寫的作品。蕭士塔高維契連篇歌曲《來自猶太民俗詩篇》，是1948年有感於蘇聯當時所爆發的反猶太人風潮而寫。全部十一曲，前面八首描寫沙皇統治下猶太人的痛苦生活，後三首則描述史達林時代猶太人的所謂「快樂生活」，不過，對蕭士塔高維契來說，猶太民族一向就是「無助」的象徵，所以幸福表象下的深沉悲劇才是他的真意。布洛赫的五曲由大提琴擔綱獨奏的《希伯萊冥想曲》獻給卡薩爾斯，《Nigun 大提琴即興演奏》懷念慈母，《猶太歌曲》、《哀求》和《祈禱》則形成連篇作品《來自猶太生活》。普羅柯菲夫的《猶太序曲》原本係為特殊六重奏組合而寫（絃樂四重奏加上單簧管和鋼琴），後來才改編成管絃樂曲，其主題來自老同學所提供的猶太民俗音樂主題筆記。在突洛夫斯基指揮之下，整個團隊演出非常深刻的猶太魂，洋溢著人道主義的情懷。
